How to Make Delicious Homemade Meatpies with Golden Penny Spread

There are some aromas that can stop an entire household from what they are doing. The moment meat pie is baking in the oven is definitely one of them.

One minute everyone is minding their business watching TV, scrolling through social media, pretending they’re not hungry. The next minute, someone casually asks, “Is something in the oven?” and suddenly everyone has gathered around the kitchen area with no one wanting to leave.

You might think why make some when you can buy, but homemade meat pies are a different ball game. You control the filling. You control the texture. You control how generous you feel with the meat; which is very important and even better, when you use a quality spread like Golden Penny Spread, the difference is clear. The dough is softer, richer, and easier to work with, giving you that perfect snack that works for breakfast, dessert or tea time.

So if you’ve ever wanted to make homemade meat pies that taste buttery and properly satisfying, this is your sign.

What You’ll Need

For the Dough Base:

● 3 cups all-purpose flour

● 1/2 cup Golden Penny Spread

● 1 teaspoon baking powder

● 1/2 teaspoon salt

● Cold water (as needed)

For the Filling:

● Minced meat (beef or chicken)

● 1 medium potato (diced small)

● 1 carrot (diced small)

● 1 small onion (chopped)

● 1 tablespoon flour (for thickening)

● Seasoning cubes

● Salt and pepper to taste

● A little oil

● Water or stock

Step-by-Step: How to Make It

1. Prepare the filling

Heat a little oil in a pan and sauté your onions until fragrant. Then add minced meat and cook until browned. Once the meat is cooked, add diced potatoes, carrots, seasoning cubes, salt and a bit of water or stock. Stir well and let it simmer until the vegetables are soft. You can also sprinkle in a small amount of flour to slightly thicken the mixture. Once done, set it aside to cool.

2. Make the dough base

In a large bowl, mix your flour, baking powder, and salt. Add the star ingredient; Golden Penny Spread into the flour and rub it in with your fingers until the mixture looks like fine crumbs. Gradually add cold water and mix until you form a smooth, non-sticky dough. Leave to rest for a few minutes

3. Shape your meat pies

Roll out your dough on a clean surface and cut into circles using a bowl or cutter. Scoop a spoonful of your cooled meat filling into the center of each circle and fold over to form a half-moon shape. Press the edges together with a fork to seal properly so no filling escapes mid-bake.

4. Bake

Preheat your oven and place the meat pies brushed lightly with egg wash, on a baking tray. Bake until the edges are golden brown and slightly crisp on the outside. Allow to cool slightly before serving. See Full recipe here: Watch video
